Re: what is the 5M

This typically refers to the fishbone or Ishakawa diagram that is grouped into 5 categories starting with M:
  • Man
  • Methods
  • Materials
  • Machines
  • several variants exist such as:
    • Measurement,
    • Maintenance,
    • Mother Nature (ambient environment)

I often use mindmaps as Ishikawa diagrams (Basically the same format except for keeping the headlines close to center instead of the other way around. Unfortunately I have not uploaded any clear examples with a 5M outline, but here is a link to a few other maps. I'll see if I have a better example somewhere.
